I grew up around guns, my grandpa is a gun
but I never ever shot one before this weekend. Part of the appeal for me is probably that I waited 25 years to pick one up! |
My grandpa is too, he even made his own ammunition. He had me shot a handgun too but that had too much kick for me to be accurate.
|
I have never even touched a gun before.

Our Grandpas should hang out. ><
Gramps made my mom a silver bullet, because they had a long running joke about werewolves. I'd like to learn to make my own ammo because if I'm going to get into this whooo those bullets are 'spensive! |

I hadn't before this weekend. Kind of shocked that I went ahead and gave shooting a try. I don't like to try new things, especially in front of other people. It's like I know making mistakes is a part of learning and i hate for people to see me fail. That's why I have issues with public speaking - had to do some of THAT this weekend. We were having a religious ceremony and they needed a fourth speaker and no one else would step up so I kind of had to. *cringe* Still alive though! |
That was pretty much my first time with a gun too. Rifles are a lot easier to use but I can see how a handgun might be better for portability.
|
Makes sense. I don't really see myself carrying one around though.
Kind of can't in this state anyway. |
Can't anywhere in this country. Unless you are a cop. That and hunting but thats not caring one around.

You can get carry concealed permits in Missouri.
And I think Texas. I'm sure about Missouri though because that's where I was this weekend and one of the guys out at my friend's house showed me his permit. You have to take a class on gun safety and pass a background check. Anyway, I wouldn't feel comfortable carrying one even if I could in Illinois. Working overnights though.. it wouldn't be the worst idea. I'll just keep carrying my mace and taser. The taser isn't technically legal or illegal kind of a gray area. The local police know I have mine and they're outlook is if I need it and I have it - gravy. No crime in defending myself. If I use it "for fun" my ass is getting locked up fast. I'd never do that! |
Tazers aren't legal in this country either unless you area cop. No guns, not tazers and no mace. No clubs, or battons, or knives. No weapons whats so ever!
|
Thing about that is.. the people who would attack you
aren't going to sweat the illegality of weapons. |
That is true. Very true. Though it might stop a few people then if it were legal
|
*wiggles in*
sorry I havent been on...Im like..hardcore busy D: |
Just glad you found time. Quite the army of Ankas you've got there!
|
I tried to use the Anka but it stole my spotlight!
|
Anka stole the spotlight from a crazy rave-disco a go go pixie? oO
